"Our clients' interests always come first, after ours"

The Goldman Sucks Group is a Trattorian financial company, and is one of the largest investment banks in the Nehellenium Galaxy and its satellites. Catering primarily to institutional clients like large companies and countries, GS provides asset management, mergers & acquisitions, prime brokerage, and underwriting services.

Founded in G.R. 1869, Goldman Sucks has an illustrious history with many executives moving on to lead the BrikVerse’s financial sectors, including the USA Secretary of the Treasury, the Trattorian Chief Comptroller, and the Governor of the Bank of Britannia.

Average minifigs across the galaxy primarily know Goldman Sucks as one of the most evil corporations in the BrikVerse. They deny loans, pillage savings and pensions, bankrupt entire countries with sovereign debt, and crack open companies like financial pirates. It also works with dictatorial, minifig-rights-violating regimes, fixes commodity prices, and engages in regular insider trading with a corrupt culture that rivals the Space Mafia. Although the Trattorian higher executives forbid it officially, many of the foreign bankers in the New York and New London offices regularly hold stripper and cocaine/RbT parties.

After losing money and nearing collapse in the 2004 BrikVerse Financial Krisis, GS successfully lobbied and raided governments ranging from the USA, Trattoria, and Britannia for bailout money. Afterwards, it gave out trillions in bonuses to its top executives using that taxpayer money, resulting in some of its top officials making more than some entire small star empires. To this day it regularly lobbies legislatures across the galaxy to repeal financial regulations and for further favorable treatment.
